You were there in late 1800s Ybor City - Toured Ybor City with Joe. Joe brought to life the settlement and lifestyle of late 1800s Ybor City. Learned so much. Fabulous tour and guide!

Interesting and important - Easy to find and park meeting spot. Steve was a friendly and engaging tour guide. His easy knowledge and great storytelling made this tour a most enjoyable afternoon and quite informative! There is very little walking involved and plenty of opportunity to be seated. There were 6 of us and we highly recommend this for EVERYONE! Young, old and in between.

Very informative but overpowering method of delivery - The tour guide was very informative and had a lot of knowledge however he was basically yelling and shouting the knowledge for the entire tour which was overwhelming. Our entire larger group was put off by his method of delivery. He was passionate but to an uncomfortable extreme- would not recommend this tour due to the nature of the guide unfortunately. He also accepted his tips at the end with some odd comments ……
